COMMUNITY HOUSING AND DINING GUIDE

A SENSE OF BELONGING

IT'S ALL HERE

LIVING ON CAMPUS Some of the best memories of college come from living on campus. Friends are made in a residence hall, on a walk to class, or over a meal in a dining hall. Living in the heart of the Big Blue Nation is one of the best decisions you can make. Why? Because it’s all here.

Classrooms, eateries, the library, and your friends are steps from where you’re living and learning.

PARTICIPATING IN A LIVING LEARNING PROGRAM LEADS TO GREATER SUCCESS. Studies show participation in an LLP can lead to: • Increased GPA • Successful and steady progress toward a degree • An increased sense of community • Increased engagement with faculty, staff, and students • Further participation in connected courses and academic experiences • Higher satisfaction with students’ choice to live on campus
